Candente Resource Corp. is pleased to report that copper assays have been received for the 13 holes drilled to date as part of the 4,365 metre metre

All holes intersected significant widths of leachable copper which when added to the 12 holes drilled by Candente in 2004, demonstrates that leachable copper occurs over a minimum area of 1.2 kilometres (km) long by 450 m wide and up to 346 m thick.

The leachable copper and several other features such as: low strip ratio, low elevations, good access and infrastructure and abundant water supply, will contribute significantly to lower costs for development and copper production."

Copper mineralization occurs in several rock types. The majority of the copper mineralization occurs in a Crowded Quartz quartz, one of the commonest of all rock-forming minerals and one of the most important constituents of the earth's crust. Chemically, it is silicon dioxide, SiO2.  Feldspar feldspar (fĕl`spär, fĕld`–) or felspar (fĕl`spär), an abundant group of rock-forming minerals which constitute 60% of the earth's crust.  Porphyry Porphyry, Greek scholar

The 2005 drilling to date has nearly tripled the surface expression (from 14 to 38 hectares) and more than doubled the vertical extent of grid-drilled copper mineralization (now from 2960 m to 2320 m elevation elevation, vertical distance from a datum plane, usually mean sea level to a point above the earth.
